“I still can’t believe all the drama,” Lizzie said.
Ashley nodded. “Zoe and I both lodged complaints with HR, not that it would’ve helped with Douglas behind it.”
“She was one of those women who hates other women. She wanted to be the queen. The only woman playing with the big boys. So glad she got hers.” Zoe sipped her soda.
Crystal stirred her strawberry milkshake. “I’m glad Himmel did, too. Cheating at work and on his wife. What a creep!”
“What they put you through! I just want to run them out of town. Better yet, shove them both in a barn full of angry bees.” She stabbed her coleslaw with a fork.
That was pretty tough talk from the sweetest one in the group. “Are you okay, Lizzie?”
“I have been moody lately. Finally, I went to the doctor and got a checkup. We weren’t trying or anything.” Lizzie blushed.
“Pregnant?” Zoe asked.
Lizzie nodded, and the women screamed in excitement.
“That’s so great!” Crystal said.
“Apparently, I need to catch up.” Ashley laughed.
“It wasn’t a plan, but the guys can’t wait.” Lizzie’s tiny frame didn’t show a hint of it yet.
Crystal took a bit of her sandwich and contemplated kids in a group relationship. Zoe made it work with her job, and her daughter was a mirror of her stylish, independent mom. They had no idea which of the four men was the father, and they all doted on the little girl.
“Crystal,” Ashley said.
“What? Sorry,” Crystal said.
“Boy or girl. Make your bet.” Zoe nodded.
Lizzie was so calm and had taken to life on a bee ranch with jeans and T-shirts. For some reason, Crystal saw her friend with a few sons. “I think it’ll be a boy.”
“I don’t care as long as it’s healthy.” Zoe took a big bite of her cheeseburger.
“Of course, it’s just fun to guess. Once you find out, we can plan the baby shower.” Ashley smiled.
“I’ll help. I have a lot more free time now,” Crystal offered.
“You won’t be swamped trying to get clients?” Zoe asked.
“I’m starting slow. The guys own the garage now. That’s one. Mr. Nicholas has asked me to look at his retirement funds. I’m going to offer a review and recommendation service to small businesses. Go over the bookkeeping and give advice. Offer to do the tax forms and such. Some people might want more. Individuals will mostly want me to do taxes when the time comes, but maybe, they’ll want some financial planning, too.” Crystal shrugged.
Lizzie raised her hand. “Count in the bee ranch. We could use a bookkeeping review. I’m no expert.”
“Done.” Crystal nodded.
“You’ll be very busy. People trust you.” Ashley smiled.
“But you’re very calm for this lack of work. You’re not freaking out to get more clients and stuff going. Is it panic?” Zoe asked.
Crystal shook her head. “No. I mean, I moved in with the guys, and I had been saving as much as I could since I’ve been working here in Lucky Springs. The promotion helped with a raise. So I’ve got enough of a cushion to go slow and do it right.”
“Well, self-employment agrees with you,” Ashley said.
“So does Lucky Springs. I can’t thank you enough for bringing us here.” Crystal nodded.
“We needed jobs.” Ashley shrugged.
Zoe lifted her glass. “To new job ventures and new babies!”
The other women raised their glasses to the toast and clinked them. Taking a drink, Crystal knew they were all on the right track.

Crystal walked into the main office at the garage, where Andy and Lance would be. Today she found all of them hanging out. She grinned and watched them for a minute before they noticed her. Her men. All four different and sexy and perfect in their own way.
“What are you staring at?” Roman asked when he caught her eye.
“The guys I love looking happy with what they’re doing. I think we’re finally in the right jobs and with the right people.” She walked in and locked the door behind her.
“I think she’s up to no good,” Fred said.
Andy laughed. “You hope.”
She tossed her purse in a chair and checked out the smallish office as she went to each guy and took her time kissing them.
“So things are looking good here?” she asked.
“Great. Everything is in order. We’ll need your expertise to keep the money in line, but we’ll pay you. Keep it all square.” Lance shrugged.
“Glad to hear it. It occurred to me that we had sex in Andy’s old office. We’ve had sex in the house and can screw around whenever we want in my new office. But we’ve never done anything here.” She sat on the desk.
“Is that a request?” Lance pushed her skirt up, and Fred pulled her back.
“I think it only feels right.” She reached for Fred’s zipper.
“It’s all you this time. You’re getting fucked, eaten and you’re doing all the sucking.” Andy opened her blouse and pushed her bra down before he sucked her tits.
There was no downside to any of it. They were the bosses. It didn’t matter if they got caught. There were no more worries about bosses or HR. No more drama about policies or procedures. It was all behind them.
She tugged Fred in closer and sucked him as Lance found protection. Soon, Roman was fucking her while Andy slid his cock between her tits. The way Roman moaned, she knew Lance had to be fucking him, too. She grabbed Andy’s cock and led him around. She wanted two in her mouth.
Licking and stroking two cocks at once, she now had a clear view of Roman with Lance behind him. They were so sexy and undeniably bisexual. She loved being the center of attention but loved watching as well. It was the best of all worlds. Lance’s devilish grin made her pussy quiver as he pulled Roman’s head back and kissed his mouth.
Above her, Fred and Andy kissed as they thrust to her lips. Jerking them faster, she rocked her hips to Roman. All her men hard and all the stress gone, she couldn’t help herself. She came on Roman’s cock. Andy grabbed one of her breasts as if to say she wasn’t done. Far from it, she sucked both heads into her mouth and moaned on them as Roman kept fucking her.
This could go on all night. Lance set a harder tone on Roman’s ass, and she got the benefit. They’d make her come again before they were done. Sliding down Fred’s cock, she nuzzled his balls as she tugged on Andy’s. Fred jerked Andy’s cock and made him cum fast. She savored the hot liquid on her lips and started stroking Fred fast. Andy helped, and the guy lost control in minutes.
“We’re just getting started,” Andy chuckled.
“Good. I’m just getting warmed up.” She licked their cocks and swallowed the creamy prize as Lance and Roman muffled their screams and bucked. Watching them, she shared the love and debated if they should make it a marathon here at the garage or go home where they could be really loud?
Her home.
Everything was working out well. There would be no more negativity and drama. No playing corporate games and kisses their butts. She was free to be happy on her own terms with four hot men who loved her, would slay dragons or change their lives for her. Her life felt like a fairytale now. No, it was actually better because she wasn’t a damsel in distress but an equal partner in it all.
